MTA Donates to Montclair Village Plaza
A couple of years ago, MTA made a donation in support of the design and construction of the new Montclair Village Plaza on Antioch Court between Mountain Boulevard and Antioch Street, less than ½ mile south of our home courts (Mountain @ Colton). Benefits to the community include:
Improve safety on roadways for cyclists, pedestrians, and drivers
Support small businesses and promote foot traffic and commerce
Live music, community gatherings, and cultural events
Construction has been completed, and MTA’s commemorative brick has been installed in the new brick patio right outside Tutti Frutti Frozen Yogurt on the corner of Mountain Blvd and Antioch Court. We hope you’ll take a look the next time you’re in the area!

MTA Board Meetings
MTA Board of Director meetings are held at 7:00 pm on the first Wednesday of at least every other month (at least for now, meetings are held via online video), with special meetings held on an as-needed basis as required by the organization's needs. Non-board members are welcome to attend; please email info@montclairtennis.org for details and an invite.
Every December, MTA holds an annual General Membership Meeting, where we recap the outgoing year, look forward to the next year, and accept nominations for and then vote in the next year's MTA Board of Directors.
